CA-Saddleback Run-2/22/03

[Josh S.]

Yo-me and OneBadExpSport are goin up to Saddleback on saturday the 22nd, wonderin if anybody else wanted to go...Brian is a 2wd and I cant use my 4wd, so if YOU are a 2wd, dont be scared. You'll still have fun. And 4wd guys reading this, there will be trails available for the more low-rangers and steepass hill climbers. there may even be a little mud if we get lucky. Probly not but maybe. There is a lot of fun trails out there, so come out and enjoy the ride.

We will be meeting at Club Tan off of W. 6th and somethin else. Ill update that later. We'll be basically meeting in Corona off the 91, Maple exit. Right by the mobil station that is right off the freeway. Meeting time will most likely be around 9am.

I will probly have a couple friends with there trucks come out too that have functional 4wd as well. Cmon out itll be fun, dont hesitate to ask questions! Cya there!

Josh,

I can't believe they let your a$$ out to go run on a trail! Since I'm old and worthless, I've got nothing better to do...And if mine breaks, thankfully, I have an understanding wife who'll let me run hers into the ground as well! Anyways, this sounds like it might be fun...Only problem, I don't have MUDDER tires or a snorkel - both of which will probably be required equipment if the rain keeps up...

What you mean man?! Anyways, you should come bro! It'll be fun. We are goin out there to go muddin at like 11pm tonite too. Hopefully it should kick some ass. Believe it or not, I haven't ever had my mud-terrains in ACTUAL MUD!!! There is never any mud around here man, gotta take advantage of the situation ya know? Yah my trucks pretty jacked still, but it can still get up there so that means I'm goin! We're goin to camp in adelanto in a couple days too.

Dude, you dont need no snorkel or mud tires, dont worry bout it. Steve has at's and my buddy jon's mud tires are bald, so I think your tires will be able to compete with theirs. You better come out there man. Wont really be a formal deal, just a lotta screwin around and havin some fun with our trucks. Hey, I got a tow strap, remember?! (joshua tree)

Hey, I got a tow strap, remember?! (joshua tree)

Aww, that hurts!

I'll see if I can make it out...I work in the morning, so I won't be able to run the trails tonight...

[Josh S.]

CMON dude, i got school in the mornin. whatev its all good, just mark your calendar for da 22nd. You got my cell # right? I'm just about to leave work so call me up if you change your mind and we'll keep in touch about next weekend. Peace

 

[Ken Cooke]

Send me your cell # via email. I'll try and make it out the 22nd.

-Ken

 

[Josh S.]

email sent. I'm goin to The Block tonight with my woman so I'll see if that sticker place is open to get you yours ok? Peace

Sean,


Does RCD have a "Truck-for-loan" program???

-Ken

 

[Josh S.]

Hey guess what!?!!?! I'm now truckless too!! I tore the **** up this weekend in victorville and busted off both front lower shock mounts and snapped a dropdown bracket. Its all good. Massive mudboggin out there, freakin sickass ****. We are still going despite my truck, but the explorer support wont be there. Let me know who else wants to go!!! peace

 

[Brans Freestyle]

hey i know you said 2wd ppl could make it, but could a stock 2wd go?

 

[Josh S.]

Oh yah dude. I used to take mine up there stock all the time. You wont be able to go on all the trails, but you'll be able to see all the action from the fireroad. 4wd kinda helps, but you can still cruise and do a couple trails no problem.

 

[Brans Freestyle]

sweet, so it looks like im going to try and make it up there, corona is about an hour and a half away from my house. another question, is there some sort of age limit with these things? ive never gone on a run before and me and my friend are only 17 but want to go, will this be a problem? my other friend might bring up his ranger too

 

[Josh S.]

Nah no age limit man. Dont worry, I'm only 18 myself! Ventura is a hellass long ways away from o.c., but thats cool. Shouldnt be much traffic on a saturday mornin.

I'm pissed. I have to tear apart my entire front end again!!! This is going to be the 5th time!!! I have to replace my beams and drop down brackets with camburg cut and turned ones. This is going to be a biotch, but its all part of offroading.

By all means, BRING ALL OFFROADING FRIENDS!! The more the merrier! Its always a lot of fun to have a bunch of people to go with of all ages and skill levels. If you guys have any more questions, just ask! Josh

 

[Ken Cooke]

ARGH! I told Suzanne that I would go with her to the Desert Hot Springs flea market to buy that darn cactus she didn't buy last week. I can't flake on her since I decided to kick back at home instead of spend quality time with her and the In-Laws in Palm Springs this past weekend... I kinda owe her (bigtime!)...

-Ken

 

[OneBadExpSport]

I have a buddy with a Toyota 4x4 Tacoma and maybe his brother with a Bronco that is going. Come on guys, we gotta show him that our Explorers and Rangers can outclimb a Tacoma! Explorer Pride!

Brian

 

[OneBadExpSport]

It just started raining here in Orange County, which means.......MUD!!!!!!

Whooooohoooo! Come on guys, who else is in?

Brian

 

[DesertSpive]

Sorry guys, I will be in Phoenix!

--Sean

 

[Josh S.]

Alright lets kinda take a tally here of who is going...

So far:
Josh S. (riding in montero w/ Jon)
OneBadExpSport (explorer)

Wow thats pretty damn weak guys, lets get some more people in on the action here. I'm not promising any mud, but I was up there last thursday and it was so muddy that it was getting really dangerous and we had to turn around... With that said, who wants some?!!

Brian is the dude in the tacoma goin for sure? I'm gonna call my buddy and see if he's free to bring up his 4runner.

 

[Josh S.]

update

Well the trip is going to be pushed back a few hours to probly about 12:00. We still have to seal up my friends differential that morning and finish his truck so there ya have it. Is anybody planning on attending or what? Brian, whats the deal? Its alright if nobody wants to go, I just dont want to haulass out there at a specific time if I dont have to. Let us know wasup ok? Thanks guys. Brian, I'll pm you with my cell # so you can contact me if you dont get this till tonite. Peace
